Winter at Flying Horse Farm

December 31, 2009

Winter is officially upon us at Flying Horse Farm! This particular picture is from the first significant snow storm, the weekend before Christmas. What’s more fun than seeing the horses play in the snow? Plus, riding in snow can be a great workout for the horses! Not to mention a fun diversion from typical ring work!

While we’ve all slowed down a little bit due to the season, Becca’s students and boarders are showing tremendous dedication – not letting a little cold and wind deter them from riding!

Next weekend Becca & Lilly, Mindy & Apollo and Taylor & Sosie will be attending a private clinic with Boyd Martin! Boyd Martin is a top event rider, originally from Australia, but who is now based in Pennsylvania. Boyd just won the CCI*** at Fair Hill in October, adding to his long list of international wins. We’re all very excited to say the least.

Becca is also tentatively planning to take a couple of horses to Southern Pines, NC in March to train with Jane Cory. North and South Carolina are great locations to get a jump start on the season and train on some great cross-country courses.

2010 is going to be a great year at Flying Horse Farm! Come join the fun!
